Infection by microbial species can cause a plethora of human diseases with variation in the severity of symptoms. Treatment options are species specific and using the wrong treatment can make symptoms worse. Therefore, accurate detection and diagnosis of the pathogenic microbe is vital. This module supports the Healthcare Science programme by developing learners understanding of diagnostic procedures in Healthcare Science (PLO12) through understanding strategies to prevent and investigate bacterial infections. This module also enables students to understand and gain experience of the application and delivery of a range of core and specialised methods and techniques from across the infection sciences. This module will support those students seeking knowledge to support their employment in healthcare laboratories, medicine and medical research. Download the PDF for BIS6022-B_2024_5.pdf
